Rolls-Royce is one of the world’s leading suppliers of power generation systems for oil and natural gas extraction both on land and at sea. The company is also an established player in the market for electricity generation systems. In this area the sales prospects for gas turbine systems based on engine technology originally developed for aviation are steadily increasing.

In the energy sector Rolls-Royce has delivered over 4,000 industrial gas turbines to customers in more than 80 countries.

Thus, for example, our low-emission 60 MW Trent industrial gas turbine has customers all over the world which use it to generate electricity and power for large pipelines. The system is based on the Trent 800 aero engine, with which it possesses 80 percent commonality.

Since 2009, German customers have also received direct support from our newly established office in Weikersheim.
